TGIF Randoms: Key to a Long life is... Immaturity?

Looking for love in the New Year? Then circle this Sunday -- January 7th -- on your calendar. A bunch of dating sites, including Match and Plenty of Fish, expect this Sunday to be their busiest day of the year. In fact, Match.com thinks they’ll see a 42 percent spike in new people signing up to the site on January 7th. Why is this Sunday such a big online dating day? One reason is that it’s the first Sunday of the new year -- and Sundays are already a popular day for online dating.

According to Plenty of Fish spokesperson Kate MacLean, "The start of a fresh year symbolizes new beginnings, and singles may be feeling particularly excited and hopeful about the future. Also, after spending the holidays solo and/or with family, and being asked the dreaded question -- 'Why don’t you have a partner yet?' -- many singles start off the year armed with a resolution to find love."

According to researchers, this perfectionism could be a factor in the record high levels of mental health issues -- including anxiety, depression and eating disorders -- among Millennials.

So the key to a long and healthy life is … being immature. According to a study, feeling young, and even acting like a kid every now and then, is good for our health and well-being. Psychologist Dr. Meg Arroll says, "Perceiving ourselves as younger than our age is linked to a more future-orientated outlook, which means that we make better health choices such as engaging in exercise and healthy eating." Basically, act young if you want to feel young. (Metro
